🧬 New study in @natmicrobiol.nature.com: Our gut’s “chemical cookbook” is highly individual. Researchers from our Cluster at @uni-jena.de & @leibniz-hki.de show why healthy eating affects everyone differently — and how #microbiome insights could enable truly personalized #nutrition.

Sporty 🏸, curious, and far from cliché: In our #July feature of our #calendar, colleagues Tongta Sae-Ong & Sascha Schäuble share their paths in bioinformatics, love for sports, and why science is as much about people as it is about data: lmy.de/fTKMI #FacesOfScience #LeibnizHKI @mbdlab.bsky.social

In a new @naturemedicine.bsky.social study, 8 weeks of VR training with REVERIE improved working memory, olfaction & altered the gut microbiome in teens with #overweight – without physical exercise. P.S.: We still like exercise though! 🤫 ➡️ Paper: doi.org/10.1038/s415... @mbdlab.bsky.social

World Microbiome Day is coming up! Please check our European Initiative MiccrobioTAckle!

Our European doctoral Network funded by @horizoneu.bsky.social MiCCrobioTAckle is now on Bluesky! Follow the account to learn about our progress on the gut microbiome and cancer cachexia!

The #MiCCrobioTAckle network held its first on-site training in Jena! 12 PhD researchers learned R basics for #microbiome data at #LeibnizHKI. The EU project explores the gut microbiome’s role in cancer cachexia. 👉 lmy.de/QLhdA 👥 @mbdlab.bsky.social 🌐 www.miccrobiotackle.eu

Gianni Panagiotou and his team @mbdlab.bsky.social in the Cluster of Excellence @microverse.bsky.social examine how the gut #microbiome impacts the development & progression of diseases. Read more in the latest issue of the #UniJena research magazine. ➡️ www.lichtgedanken.uni-jena.de/en/3146/how-...

Our lecture series #MiCoCo is back! On 2 April, Prof. Panagiotou @mbdlab.bsky.social will give a talk on "Colorectal Cancer Through the Lens of Gut Microbial Metabolism". 📍 Lecture Hall Erbertstraße 1 Everyone is welcome!

More #NatureReviewsCancer updates 🚨 We recently launched a collection on the #microbiome in cancer. While its role is still debated, the collection presents a selection of articles from #SpringerNature journals to highlight our current understandings.🧫🦠 😀👉 bit.ly/48u8WFH

#WeekendRead! #LocationLocationLocation! Amazing @Nature by @touficmayassi.bsky.social, Xavier &co showing regional specialization of the gut at the spatial (single cell) level! Strong resilience after inflammation & ILC2 are key in middle colon adaption to microbiota! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Excited to share our last work on microbiome transmission and social interactions published on Nature! The more people you interact with, the more similar your microbiome is. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
